Introduction

I am a Ph.D candidate at the University of Namur and Catholic University of Louvain, affiliated to the project on Financial Complex Systems.


My current research focuses on the simulation of interbank networks and the application of tools from the complex systems and Agent-Based Modelling literature to understanding the motivations behind bank borrowing/lending behaviour as well as the influence/effectiveness of monetary policy transmission when these considerations are taken into account.


I am particularly interested in concepts pertaining to central banking, financial stability and the design and subsequent implementation of regulatory techniques within this framework
